The soy in this country is processed in a textile way, not as in the Japanese way. Also, soy has been linked with a variety of problems including thyroid cancer, which the Japanese suffer at a disporportionate (sp?) rate. I am not suggesting you are right or wrong. I know God has instructed different families different things and would never presume that what He has instructed our family is for everyone. The only hard and fast rules are in the Bible. I was just hoping people would seek God and the information He provides before determining what to feed their family. He does own the cattle on a thousand hills and provides for us in ways that exceed the lilies of the field, so while frugality (which is a club I belong to) is to be sought, it is not at the expense of good, real food, which He provides in abundance.

I did know TVP is made with soy, but since the Japanese and Chinese have been eating soy foods for millenia, I have not found the worries about phyto-estrogen in soy very compelling.

A lot of them are very helpful. FYI- according to what I have found on the web, TVP is made with soy. If you haven't researched what soy can do to your body, you might want to look it up. It's phyto-estrogen effects are especially dominant in children. Thanks for the tips. A lot of them are very helpful. FYI- according to what I have found on the web, TVP is made with soy.
